Paterson stoneware display...

Decided to redo the shelf I had with all my local whiskies, I love the 1/2 gallon stonies...

Thanks Reb, it's just the tip of the iceberg, working on plans for a whole wall cabinet for many of the others....

Quite a nice display, and with that collection you bought, I think you're gonna have to make a lot of room for more!

Very nice display, epackage! Do I see the same hand in decorating a number of these jugs? Do you know which potteries made the jugs and who decorated them? The markings look hand-painted, are they? The artisan(s) may be identifiable from company history etc.

Yes Harry, these were mostly made at Fulper Pottery in Flemington NJ, the best I can tell there are 6 distinct script designs based on the way certain letters were done, the differences can be distinguished in the way the P in Paterson is done or by the N.J.. I don't know if there are any records to be found from Fulper to try and distinguish the name of the people who may have done the script work, but I'm going to look into it...

It gives the room a whole new look when you move things around a bit hunh Jim. You should give the before picture to the crowd. Your collection is so awesome!
